UPDATE: The Printing Museum is taking recommended safety precautions regarding COVID-19 and we will be closed to the public through the end of March. We regret that this means this workshop will be cancelled. If you have purchased tickets for this workshop, our staff will be reaching out to you with options. We will still be available to serve our community by telephone and email, and continue to closely watch the developing situation. Stay healthy, Houston!
Papermaking is an engaging and physical process that you can do right in your own home or workspace. Learn the basic elements of this ancient art as the instructor leads the class through the process of preparing the vat of pulp, pulling a sheet with a mould and deckle, couching the sheet, then pressing the paper. Each student will receive a sheaf of handmade sheets after they have completely dried. Participants should be prepared to get a bit wet as we are all in water up to our elbows. No prior experience necessary.
